investing in new technologies, invest in the ability to mobilize quickly. invest in the ability to maintain, as i said, that precise technological edge in the future. to maintain our industrial base in this country. the last thing we need is to somehow contract out that responsibility to another country. so we must maintain the core industrial base that we need. the skills that are essential to our ability to maintain a strong national defense. that establish priorities. they read. we reshape the force. not just for today, but for tomorrow. let me mention one area where i believe that we need to be ahead of the game. that is in the cyberarea. as i said, we face a number of threats. korea, north korea, iran, terrorism and et cetera. one of the great threats that we face today is the threat from cyberattacks. we have got to have the capability to stay ahead of this new challenge. in the face of what i believe is a growing threat to our economy, and a growing threat to our critical infrastructure. we are literally the target of thousands of cyberattacks every

last but not least, the use of technology. we have the ability to share information with technology that we have today with our computers and internet, having databases where we can share information with doctors and hospitals. again, keep the cost down and make sure that the consumer has good information, thorough information and make the choice. this empowers the consumer, which is i think what we all probably appreciate. and, frankly, at the end of the day i trust the consumer to make the decisions that are in the best interest of them. we have too much of a government mentality that thinks well, we know best. we need to choose for you. because you may make the wrong decision. and i think that's just wrongheaded. so let me just conclude this part by saying that what i'm talking about in utah here is a way of addressing this reform. it may not be the way. other states have different demographics. we have a young population in utah, we're the youngest of in america. our meeting age is only 29.2 here's a picture i'm the oldest

technological breakthroughs have lower the cost of producing previously economic supplies. newtek elegies are making these clean energy sources, and again the sources that have less environmental impact in the most likely alternative. these are coming forward, increasingly competitive. they are enabling energy efficiency to continue to improve, which is all good. throughout the economy, diversification of energy and natural resources applied is clearly apparent we can expect this trend to continue as electricity and natural gas among other alternative fuels as they continue to take hold. they need to have more secure supplies is beginning to influence a consensus about additional steps the candidate should be taken to renew energy and policy. modern federal policies will add to these trends by removing roadblocks that are erected by the outdated approaches that they replace. we must continue to fund and i believe consider increased funding for the scientific research that is critical to continued progress. only through this rigorous research what we produced a very dramatic

there's discussion again in the senate proposal for improving technology on the border. well, they've been working on that. fbi net lasted five years, and then they finally abandoned it. they never quite achieved what they were looking to do. so it's very, very complex, and it is very, very costly if they implement what they want to do. >> host: just one statistic as far as the southern border is concerned, the u.s./mexico border about 2,000 miles, the fence that currently exists about 650 miles. >> guest: right. but, you know, a fence is not appropriate for every situation, and what they have is not a continuous fence like the great wall of china. they have a series of barriers that make it difficult to come across or make it more likely that you're going to be caught. and what happens a lot in this debate is that there's a static idea of the border. the border is dynamic, and the enforcement has to be dynamic. what you have to realize is as they enforce different sectors, the challenge moves to a different place. so the border patrol closed off the -- or made tighter -
